The dwarf french beans should be fine (I hope so, as I am intending to plant a few more this weekend!)

I would go with the parsnips too as I love little ones as they are so sweet!
Very often quite lost- would be more lost if I could work out where I was!- But always find my way home.....

You can definitely plant the french beans, I haven't sown my second batch yet. Not sure about parsnips though as this is my first year with them - they seem to grow quite slowly.

Now that I've lifted my first spuds (Pent Jav) I'm re-planting the area with parsnips - did the same last year and had a fairly good crop until well into February this year.
I'm off for a pint

Beans definately be OK, Parsnips a bit late but worth a try at least you'll get baby snips for roasting.
